11/3/2020 2:34:00 PM | Football
More on JC vs. Stef, another solid night for DJ Moore and Yannick's Baltimore debut Week Eight of Terps in the NFL:
JC Jackson
Patriots CB JC Jackson continues to star for New England, tallying his league-best fourth interception of the season, five tackles (three solo) and a pass breakup while covering fellow Terp, Bills WR Stefon Diggs.Just call JC Mr. INT
Many think JC has been the best player on the Patriots this year.Third straight game for Mr. INT. #NEvsBUF | #GoPats

High praise from his teammate Stephon Gilmore and his coach Bill Belichick.JC Jackson is the best player on the #Patriots this season. I don't think that's a hot take at all, either.

Belichick on JC Jackson:
— Ryan Spagnoli (@Ryan_Spags) November 3, 2020
"JC's gotten better every year. He's worked hard to improve his techniques, fundamentals, leverage and tackling. I think all those things have shown up at times this year." #Patriots
Stefon Diggs
The other side of the Jackson vs. Diggs matchup resulted in Bills WR Stefon Diggs leading the Bills with six receptions for 92 yards and now stands second in the NFL with 695 receiving yards.More important than his stats, Diggs got the DUB and he was pumped about it.
.@StefonDiggs is a MOOD. 🙌#BudLightCelly | @BudLight pic.twitter.com/6HlRSgtyBm

Yannick Ngakoue
DL Yannick Ngakoue came home last week as he was traded to the Baltimore Ravens from the Minnesota Vikings, making his mother very, very happy."She worked her tail off – double shifts – and still managing to take me to practice and take me back home. She's definitely a major reason why I'm in the shoes I'm in right now."

The happiest person after the @YannickNgakoue trade? His mom.

Back in the state he played his college ball:When Yannick Ngakoue called his mother after Thursday's trade, he said it got emotional. She'd done so much for him, and now he was coming back home.

"I think he's motivated and driven strictly so he can help his mom and take care of his mom."https://t.co/PqS1gO6iN1
